Former US President Donald Trump's visit to Scotland, where he is opening a new golf course and revisiting his mother's homeland, has reignited longstanding tensions.
The trip is marked by widespread protests, significant security concerns, and controversy over the strain placed on Scottish police resources, with unions threatening legal action over alleged breaches of workforce agreements. Locals remain divided, with many Scots still harboring resentment over Trump's business dealings and political legacy. The visit is expected to be one of the largest security operations since the Queen's funeral, involving thousands of officers and heightened measures around his golf properties.
Despite official welcomes from some politicians, Trump's presence continues to polarize public opinion and challenge local authorities.
